听力材料： For a very long time America has led the world inhigher education, quantitatively at least. In 1825England still had only two universities: Oxford andCambridge. However at the same time, the UnitedStates already had over fifty colleges for a smallerpopulation. By now, in addition to hundreds ofjunior colleges, teachers' colleges and special schools, there are over 2,000 universities, collegesor other such institutions in America. They may be big or small, public or private, famous orobscure. Rapid development of higher education, a common feature in contemporarysocieties, is continuing at such a rate that America looks like being far ahead of Europe for avery long time. At that time, the overwhelming demand for higher education among Americanpeople contributed a lot to its rapid development. The growing demand for highly qualifiedpeople in an ever-more-complex modern society and the declining opportunities for the less-well-qualified, together with the growth in the total numbers of young people caused by thehigh birth-rate around 1950 to 1960, brought the total number of students to ten million bythe 1970s. By 1972 almost half of all people aged 18 and 19 were in full-time education, thoughonly one-sixth of the people then aged 25 to 29 had completed four years at "college".However, future growth is likely to be slower.
